A Lot More Fabulous!

Today is the start of the new challenge over at The Paper Shelter, and this time around our theme is... 

Birthday Girl

There are great prizes up for grabs! If you are our randomly selected winner and play with a TPS image then you have a chance of winning a $30 gift certificate, any other image and you will win three digis of your choice.

I decided to make a box card, which folds down flat for posting, but pops into shape once you take it out of the envelope. I used a die on the side panels to give them a lattice effect and only coloured up the girl part of the Retro Chic digi stamp, cutting the other parts off because I wanted her to "sit" on my card.

Over the edge and into a tunnel!

Today I have a card made from the Paper Creator Owl Triple Over the edge kit.

 I decided to print out the triple fold base card twice, cut the front section from one, add a couple of extra score lines to it, die cut a circle from the centre add a few extra bits and stick it inside the other base card matching the edges, which turned it into a "triple over the edge and into a tunnel card".

The extra owl and paper around the opening came from Nitwits Summers End kit.

A good reason to eat cake!

As if I ever needed one LOL! 

We have a new challenge starting over at The Paper Shelter today and our theme is...

Sentimental

easy enough, just make sure your creation contains a sentiment.

There are great prizes up for grabs! If you are our randomly selected winner and play with a TPS image then you have a chance of winning a $30 gift certificate, any other image and you will win three digis of your choice.

I have seen this saying knocking around and it always makes me giggle, so I decided to colour up the scrummy Curious Cake digi stamp from TPS to go with it.

All about flowers

It's the first day of June and that means it's the start of our new challenge over at Paper Creator, and this month the theme is...

All About Flowers

The winner will receive a £10 store credit to spend in the Paper Creator store.

Paper Creator products are not essential, but you will gain an extra entry into the random draw if using Paper Creator products.

I decided to use the Flower Petal Wishes Open Book Easel Card kit, but made a couple of changes, I cut a couple of centimetres from the easel base to make it slightly narrower than the largest book page, and used a different paper to make my easel stopper. The paper for the stopper and butterflies, and also the extra flowers were all printed from a Nitwits kit.

Extra papers and flowers - One Birdie Lane collection - Nitwits

Sentiment - Computer Generated
